    • Shinjitsu - Can sense when someone is lying, and discern the real truth

  • The Circle (When a member passes away or retires, their position is filled by the next eligible person from that field)
    • Miss Merry - Frost elemental with an inexplicable sense of style
      • Public Administrators - Masters of media, artists of advertising
    • Orb - Purplish, floating orb that can gather, interpret and act upon data from dozens of sources at once

    • Sylver - Silver tongue, calms/soothes people’s minds
      • Business Administrators - Manage the monetary aspects of the organization
    • Kuikku - Short, line of sight teleports
      • Inner Administrators - Paperwork workers, communications creators, and all-around organization organizers
    • Ringside - No anota abilities
      • Trainers - Responsible for preparing all new recruits for whatever field they’ve been brought in for
  • The Arc (When a new member is needed, the employees in that field vote for a suitable replacement)
    • Bedrock - Turns rocks into rubble
      • Underground Constructors - Create and reinforce the tunnel systems and bases used by the organization
    • Apoyo - Super strong, titanium skin form
      • Urban Constructors - Builders and managers of every major city Center
    • Plow Hand - Creates massive chunks of telekinetic energy capable of moving earth, people and buildings
      • Rural Constructors - Builders and managers of every Center outside of a city
    • Stardancer - Flies, and doesn’t need to breath
      • Non-terran Constructors - Set up bases in the hard-to-reach-places, such as aquatic, aerial and in space
    • Wormhole - Tears rifts to the Weir Web and can travel along the paths, from one side of the planet to the other
      • Transportation Constructors - Run the important task of maintaining modes of travel in-between the organization’s Centers and bases

Formed over eighty years ago by the first team of Anota superheroes, the organization has grown to a global scale in a relatively short amount of time, training and helping super-powered people all over the world. (Anotas coming from the Greek word anoteros, or superior.) Now, with career options for practically every kind of superpower, as well as many for those who do without, W.H.O is the ultimate global organization. They have representatives in almost every country around the world, and at least one Center in every region where the population percentage of anotas comes above 5% (with varying amounts of resources, of course, but always with the means for control training and quick teleportation to larger locations).

...

For lack of a better post, I hope this at least proves interesting. Most of these details don't actually feature in the comicbook series I've planned out (at least, not the first 45-issue story arc), but it's still important to work out the background stuff ahead of time. Not to mention, it's always fun coming up with unique looks/names/powers.
Hope the weather is tolerable where you are,
